3. INTRODUCTION
Markbass has a keen understanding of the needs of recording and live sound engineers, and has worked long and hard to design a state-of-the-art passive direct box that fully meets these
professional requirements.
Phase distortion and harmonic distortion are most prevalent at lower frequencies, but with the Super Pro DI Box, the sound of your bass comes through nice and clear with smooth, transparent low
end. It’s extremely quiet and clean, and has been optimized to give full, rich, linear sound at all frequencies, handling extreme transients without adding any distortion or color to your sound.
The Super Pro DI Box performs beautifully with any source you put through it… not just bass.
It’s great for acoustic and electric guitars, electronic drums, high-output electronic instruments and digital keyboards.
Passive direct boxes have the advantage of providing isolation, which can reduce ground hum in systems, but this requires a high-quality transformer—and our “Yellow Box” features one of the
world’s nest! No matter what type of signal you use it for, the Super Pro DI Box always sounds full and natural.
